Enhanced anticancer potency of hydroxytyrosol and curcumin by PLGA‐PAA nano‐encapsulation on PANC‐1 pancreatic cancer cell line

Abstract: Many chemotherapeutic regimens have been investigated for advanced unresectable and metastatic pancreatic cancer (PC), but with only minimal improvement in survival and prognosis. Here, we investigated anti-cancer function of free and nanoencapsulated hydroxytyrosol (Hyd) and curcumin (Cur), and its combinations (Hyd-Cur) on PANC-1 cell line. The poly lactide-co-glycolide-co-polyacrylic acid (PLGA-co-PAA) nano-encapsulated Hyd and Cur were synthesized, and MTT assay was performed to evaluate cytotoxic effects … Show more

“…GBM is highly resistant to most treatments due to its heterogeneous nature and the presence of TMZ and RT-resistant cancer stem cells [17]. Numerous studies have shown the importance of using drugs in combination (simultaneous use of a combination of two drugs) to reduce the growth of cancer cells and lead cancer cells to apoptosis [25][26][27]. Therefore, we used KC7F2 to ameliorate the effects of TMZ.…”

“…Natural and synthetic compounds are used as chemotherapeutic agents and are one of the treatment options in cancer treatment [17,18]. However, the toxic side effects of synthetic chemotherapeutic agents and the stringent approval procedures before administering them to patients have led researchers to focus on natural compounds to provide safer alternatives for cancer treatment and shorten the drug approval time [19].…”

“…The anti-cancer activity of free and poly lactide-co-glycolide-co-polyacrylic acid nano-encapsulated CUR on PANC-1 cell lines was reported. This study revealed that free and nano-encapsulated CUR significantly increased apoptosis rates and decreased viability, migration and colony formation in the PANC-1 cell line with the nano-encapsulated CUR exerting a more profound apoptotic and anti-proliferative effect on the PANC-1 pancreatic cell line than the free CUR [ 124 ].…”
